Module description
Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.
Unity EdgeConnect appliances deliver predictable application performance and high availability over any combination of transport services. Orchestrated, application-driven security policies enable direct internet breakout for trusted SaaS, web, and applications, and secure connection to cloud hosted security services. EdgeConnect reduces complexity by enabling a single element, simplified "thin branch".
